During his press conference, New York Giants head coach Tom Coughlin said LB Thomas Carroll has handled the switch from defensive end to linebacker really well. Coughlin added, "He can run – that young man can run. We can use him as an end as well, so we're going to do some of that in the pass-rush situation."
